The same thing that makes me want $10,000 in Federal Reserve notes on hand is what makes me want $10,000 in physical gold on hand.
But what we're seeing now is people taking that $10,000 cash on hand and preferring to hold the gold instead. That's not a fear of anything other than the currency.
In the past? You have war coming? You buy bonds, dollars, US stocks, real estate, whatever.
This is based solely on the fact that the US is going to have higher interest rates going forward, making real estate, stocks, bonds... all unable to do the job of the gold.
